How to create your dinamically javascript file:

Step 1: Create your javascript file as ejs file:

Go to in your project directory where you want to save your javascript files. I create it in views folder of my express project.

// cd your_view_javascript_Folder
cd myproject/views  

Create a ejs file where write your javascript code.

vim jsPage.ejs  

Insert in your file the <script> and </script> tag as bellow:

<script type="text/javascript">
  
  // you logic must be placed here
  
</script>

Your code must be put inside <script> and </script> tag.

Now insert your dinamically javascript code using ejs tags as bellow:

<script type="text/javascript">
 
 jQuery.ajax({
        url: <%= url %>,
        type: "GET",
        success: function(data, textStatus, xhr){
            console.log(data);
        },
        error: function(xhr, status){
            console.log(xhr);
        }
});

</script>
